Break out the male mascara and eyeliner, the fake beards and the long dreadlocks, it's time for yet another "Pirates" movie.
Johnny Depp is back again as the over the top, highly animated Captain Jack, and he brings along Penelope Cruz, Geoffery Rush, and Ian MacShane this time. This is the fourth installment in the Pirates Of The Carribean series. I have to think this is the most successful film franchise based on an amusement park ride. Enough sarcasm, although true.
How on earth do you review a movie like this? This is one of those movies than everyone loves before the walk in the theater. I know the second one caught some heat, and well deserved. But trying to review these movies will fall on deaf ears. Depp in this series is terrific, and that's all fans really need. I tihnk they could really do about anything they wanted in this series and everyone would love it. At this point, it's still bullet proof.
Swashbuckling a plenty, tons of action, and the desperate search for the Fountain Of Youth in this movie, is a winning combination for it's fans. Elaborate sets, extraordinary costumes, tons of special effects, and a sense of humor pull this franchise through yet again. And if the ending is any hint, this will not the last one of these anytime soon. If we're not careful Depp could be the fist pirate in history on Social Security. OK, maybe a little sarcasm hung around.
Action based, and intense at times Pirates does check in at two hours and twenty minutes, so it's a real afternoon commitment, but no one will mind. A far cry from the 2 hours forty five a movie or two ago. Unending summer fun for those who have been waiting.
Pirates Of The Caribbean (4). Fans will love it.
